Owners of 2024 KTM motorcycles with LC8c engines, as well as LC8 Street and Travel models, will now be able to extend their warranties at no charge simply by servicing their motorcycles at an authorized KTM dealer. In addition, the warranty for KTM PowerParts and KTM SpareParts installed by an authorized KTM dealer at the time of purchase will be extended to 24 months for all street models.
“We always advise our customers to use the official KTM network to get their motorcycles serviced, purely because the staff are trained on those particular models – and many more! – and use approved parts and accessories where applicable,” said Jens Tuma, senior head of customer service for KTM. “This way we can ensure best possible quality and value preservation of the bikes, and it’s also a big reason why we’re really happy to make this warranty extension offer for KTM customers around the world.”

I didn’t buy a KTM a couple years ago after a friend had troubles with his, one cylinder not firing. I’m not sure an additional year (two total) is enough to convince me to purchase one as I tend to hang onto bikes that I buy. A 2006 Honda, 2016 Honda, 2019 Yamaha and a 2021 Kawasaki that are now all out of warranty but the reliability of each one with regular maintenance cannot be beat. I enjoyed the Demo days riding KTM models but the brand doesn’t come trouble free, at least enough for me to purchase.
